In Kassel Germany. Front page news on their local newspaper that weekend. A few pix on FB.
How did they get the water up the Herkules Monument back then?

We just went there yesterday. SonntagsZeit, titles: Wassermassen als Machtsymbol, which Google translates as “Water masses as a symbol of power”.
Vor 300 Jahren gab es im Bergpark Wilhelmsh

Zeppelinstr in Kassel is a decent neighborhood. The next door neighbor, as with many Germans, even in Frankfurt, uses the most primitive method to dry their cloth/linens. My mother-in-law used to do this way but her neighbors in New York complained it as an eyesore. On this, I’m sided with the Chinese and Europeans. I love the smell of the sun on my cloth/towels/linens.
A nice touch for the handle of the electrical box:
I like how they do their toilet – the German engineering (do they have to open the tiles/wall to do repair? Or they’re so confident that their products are so excellent that repairment isn’t needed?)
